You scored as Modernist. Modernism represents the thought that science and reason are all we need to carry on. Religion is unnecessary and any sort of spirituality halts progress. You believe everything has a rational explanation. 50% of Americans share your world-view.

Well, apparently somebody finally got around to writing a virus for the mac. About goddamned time.

The ACLU is warning that if the government's subpoena of Google for a week's worth of search queries goes through, they (the ACLU) will have little choice but to initiate a comparable subpoena of their own, just so they can see how much the government can tell from the data and proceed appropriately from there. Those guys are fucking ballers.

Also, the U.S. is looking to spend $75 million in Iran on propaganda pushing for democracy. For once I think I've got to agree with Iran on this one:

"Looking at the record of the Americans, such measures have been proved fruitless," Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki told the official IRNA news agency.

"We recommend that they use these funds for more important projects that benefit the American nation," he said.

Could the US be any more evil? Excerpt from an article in the Bangkok Post:

Five UN experts had applied to be permitted to conduct an inquiry at Guantanamo Bay. The US government denied entry to two and said three experts could visit the facility but could not talk with any of the detainees. The UN investigative panel decided not to accept the US government offer and refused to go. As Manfred Nowak, a UN special investigator on torture, said at the time: ''What's the sense of going to a detention facility and doing fact-finding when you can't speak to the detainees? It's just nonsense.''

Although the final report is yet to be released, the US has already denounced it, saying the authors never visited the camp and based their document on hearsay and assertion.

''We invited these individuals to visit Guantanamo Bay. They refused the invitation,'' State Department spokesman Sean McCormack said on Monday. ''We believe that we made a good-faith offer based on international obligation as well as our policies.'

Also, check out the 2005 press freedom index. How are we doing compared to everyone else? How about compared to the year before?

There's a new theory which claims that once something hits 57.7% of the speed of light, it projects a narrow beam of antigravity in front of it. Weird. Also, some people in Cali are looking to sue because dumbfuck seniors can't pass an easy test to graduate. They obviously fail to understand the intended significance of a diploma.
